Boston Skyline and Bridges

These are photos of the Boston skyline and surrounding bridges from a variety of vantage points including Cambridge, East Boston, South Boston, Chelsea, Everett, and Malden. I turned the ordinary into a dreamlike reality with very long exposures, using LEE Filters to control the light entering the lens.

Here is a different exposure from a shoot I had a couple months ago. This is what I wrote then:

This is a very unique angle of Boston I have waited a long time to get, and it was pretty exciting to finally go there. I got to believe in a decade these spots won’t exist anymore as the shoreline continues to get developed, so now is the time to take advantage. I decided to place the horizon line in the center because there were way too many vertical lines, and I don’t have a tilt and shift lens, so splitting the horizon gave me no distortion at this very wide angle.
